choose your slices wisely - Edit
previous reviews being somewhat mixed reflects my experience at this place. there were four vegan slices available, all ranging from $5-6, and three our of four are square-style cuts. 'vegan freddy' was the best as it had some taste to add to the massive amount of dough; the same is partly true of vegan hellboy squared, in addition to having tasteless cheese on top. vegan hellboy slice was pretty bad as the only taste it had was the taste of the sweet/spicy 'honey' poured over the top. vegan vidalia is a piece of dough with tomato paste and onions. probably neither of them is worth it but for the square-cut style enthusiasts.

Very Bad Pizza - Edit
I read great reviews and excited to try this. However, we ordered 3 slices: the Vegan Via, Hellboy, and the Hot Honey one. All of them were burned (not crispy as it should be). There were 3 shreds of cheeze on all the slices and it was very bland. The hot honey tasted like straight sugar and the pepperoni had an odd taste. Maybe we got a bad batch but they were all bad. I would not recommend this place at all given this is a city with amazing vegan options.

Not worth a big detour but if you are in the area, it's a great spot for a quick vegan slice.

Now, vegan hellboy slice (pepperoni) - Edit
Been eating at this slice shop for years with many vegan Freddy prinze and vidalia slices digested. Today, glad to learn they now offer vegan versions of their popular hellboy slice, which is a pepperoni with hot honey (it’s vegan “honey” specially made for this slice). They have triangle and square slice options. If you can, go here and buy vegan slices!!! A staffer said they don’t sell as well, and have recently been considering cutting some or most of the vegan offerings. I also got a hint about a potential Paulie Gee’s opening in Gowanus BK.

Vegan Freddy Prince is the best! - Edit
Often get slices here when we're in Greenpoint, it never disappoints, every slice I've tried is yummy but hands down favorite is the Vegan Freddy Prince which is a Sicilian slice with Numu vegan mozzarella, Be-Hive vegan sausage, tomato sauce, Follow Your Heart vegan Parm, and a crunchy sesame seed bottom crust. One slice is filling but if I'm really hungry I always want 2 slices! The shop is typically busy, but the guys that work there are fast and friendly, even with a long line it never takes too long to get your order.

Pizza just like you love and remember, but vegan - Edit
All the vibes of an old school slice joint, but with delicious vegan options (and not just one, several)! The “hipster urban barn decor” mentioned in the overview above refers to the sit-down Paulie Gee’s on Greenpoint Ave, which is the original location—this is more of a grab’n’go situation even though there is a good amount of seating in the back. Crusts are perfectly crispy, toppings create layered flavor, prices are fair, and they keep things moving so you can be in and out pretty quickly if that’s your goal. Highly recommended!

Finally, a large pizza - Edit
The best thing about this pizza is that it was very large. The pizza itself was good, but I wouldn't say that this was the best pizza I've ever had.

Provided the NYC pizza experience! - Edit
I tried the special vegan pizza slice which had a form of vegan mince meat/ sausage meat on it with sauerkraut. However the star was the “deep” (?) pizza with the same vegan meats, but more tomato sauce on a thicker dough. Even my non-vegan BF preferred it over his pepperoni pizza.

By the slice! - Edit
It’s not the fanciest pizza I’ve ever had, but it’s got a great vibe and man it’s awesome to be able to grab just a slice. You will not be disappointed by this cute little joint!

There were 3 vegan options. They only had one left. It was damn good. And they included a surprise complimentary slice. A bonus for sure.

Not as Good as I Remember - Edit
Stop there for the first time in a couple of years. Got a slice and I was actually a little underwhelmed. My memories tasted better than the pizza did. Got a slice of pregame to going to their OG place.

Great vegan slice in Greenpoint - Edit
I’ve been going to Paulie Gee’s since they first opened. For a relaxing sit down dining experience check out the restaurant on Greenpoint Ave but for a delicious vegan slice on the go the Slice Shop is a great choice although you can also hang there and sample one of the many delicious craft beers on tap or in a can/bottle. I’ve tried all the vegan slices and they are among the best in the city but I think my favorite is the Vegan Vidalia Square which features tomato sauce, Follow Your Heart vegan parm, and caramelized Vidalia onions.

Best Vegan Pizza in NYC - Edit
Found this place by accident and so glad I did! They have so many vegan options that it’s hard to choose from. It’s the closest thing I’ve found to real pizza. The vegan slices are so good it satisfies any craving I have for regular pizza. I highly recommend the square vegan onion slice!

Best vegan pizza! - Edit
I've lived in NYC for over ten years and I never tried Paulie Gee's until this month. Seriously, what was I thinking? This is the BEST vegan pizza I've ever tasted. They have multiple flavors and everything about it is perfection! Definitely a must for any vegan craving pizza in NYC! Four stars only because they are not fully vegan.

Good slice. Vegan slice options might be limited - Edit
I have eaten at the Paulie Gee's restaurant in Brooklyn before. Amazing pizza. We stopped by, but the wait was going to be over an hour, so we went to the slice shop instead. They serve a more traditional NY style slice here (think Screamer's) as opposed to the wood-fired Neapolitan at the restaurant. They have a few vegan items on offer. But be aware that they might not have much to eat when you want it. When we went through the line, only one of their vegan pies had any slices left. I told them I didn't mind waiting for them to make more, but they really only seemed interested in pumping out more (dairy) cheese pizzas and (actual animal flesh) pepperoni. Luckily, they said they had a special in the queue. The special had mozzarella, Beyond Sausage, tomato sauce, and jalapenos. It was amazing. I also got a square slice with sauce and vidalia onions. Also really good. So depending what type of pizza you like, you may want to visit only one or both Paulie Gee locations (they are close enough together that you can walk between them if the restaurant is too busy). And if you want vegan slices, you may have to order an entire pie.

Very good vegan options! - Edit
There’s always a king line, that said, New Yorkers know what’s up, this place is very good, non pretentious and tasty, it’s in Greenpoint bordering Williamsburg, the staff is super nice and vegan savy, they even have Beyond Meat sausage toppings! The vegan cheese is gooey and delicious. They have 4 different vegan slices and sometimes they can be a bit dry but it’s very good for the most part.

A perfect slice - Edit
Paulie Gee’s slice shop offers the pizza you thought you lost by going vegan. It’s a great place to go with omni’s as you all have options. They offer 4 varieties of vegan pizzas- the Sicilian style with sesame on the bottom of the crust is my absolute favorite! The plain cheeze pizza can be skipped. This place is a much more casual version of the nice restaurant down the road. I waited 30 minutes in line, but it was worth it
